Definitions
- the invention relates to a mop press for a wet floor mopping device with a fixed press plate connected to the lateral press cheeks and a pivotably mounted movable press plate on which a thrust link engages which is connected to an actuating lever mounted on the press cheeks.
- Mop presses of this type serve to squeeze out the absorbent, water-soaked mop material of a cleaning mop.
- such mop presses are placed on a water tank that holds the cleaning water and is open at the top, or they thus form a unit.
- the mop to be squeezed out is inserted from above into the open press space between a fixed press plate and a movable press plate. Then the movable press plate is pressed by a pivoting movement of the operating lever in the direction of the fixed press plate in order to press out the cleaning mop.
- the actuating lever is supported at one end on the press cheeks. At a distance from this mounting, a push rod is articulated on the actuating lever, which is mounted on the back of the movable press plate is. When the actuating lever pivots towards the movable press plate, it is pressed by the push link against the fixed press plate in order to squeeze out the cleaning mop located in between.
- the movable press plate carries out a pivoting movement.
- the actuating lever is arranged outside the side press cheek and connected to a swivel shaft connecting the two press cheeks.
- a lever attached to the swivel shaft between the two press cheeks is connected in an articulated manner to the thrust link which acts on the press plate.
- the object of the invention is therefore to design a mop press of the type mentioned in such a way that the actuating force exerted on the actuating lever does not exert any significant tilting force on the water container carrying the mop press.
- the actuating lever is designed as a two-armed lever, the shorter lever arm is articulated at its free end to the thrust link such that a pivoting of the movable press plate at a pivoting movement of the longer arm of the actuating lever away from the movable press plate to the fixed press plate.
- the operating lever can therefore be attached symmetrically to the mop press, so that no one-sided tilting forces are exerted on the water tank. Since there is sufficient space for the pivotal movement of the operating lever outside of the mop press, the direction of the operating force can be provided so that it is substantially downward, i.e. is directed towards the base of the water tank and therefore does not have a tipping effect on the water tank.
- the mop press can therefore also be attached to light, portable water containers, such as cleaning buckets, and operated safely and is therefore also suitable for use in the home.
- FIG. 2 shows the mop press according to FIG. 1 in the press end position
- FIG. 3 in a section corresponding to FIG. 1, a modified embodiment of a mop press for foot operation and
- the mop press shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 serves to squeeze out a cleaning mop (not shown) of a wet floor mopping device. It is preferably a cleaning mop that has a hard, flat core with a mop covering that can be ranked on both sides.
- a press plate 2, which is firmly connected to it, is arranged between two lateral press cheeks 1 spaced apart from one another. The press cheeks 1 are placed on the upper edge of a water container 3, for example a cleaning bucket, or are firmly connected to it.
- the fixed press plate 2 On its lower edge, the fixed press plate 2 is provided with a pivot bearing 4, on which a movable press plate 5 is pivotally mounted.
- the two press plates 2 and 5 are provided with openings 6 and 7 and / or drainage grooves or the like, through which the water squeezed out of the cleaning mop can escape and flow into the water tank 3.
- the press plates 2 and 5 are preferably approximately vertical in the pressed state.
- An actuating lever 9 designed as a two-armed lever is pivotably mounted on a joint 8 of the lateral press cheeks 1. In its initial position shown in Fig. 1, the operating lever 9 takes an oblique increasing position. At the free end of its longer lever arm 9a, the actuating lever 9 forms a handle 10. The shorter lever arm 9b of the actuating lever 9 is connected at its free end via a joint 11 to a push rod 12 which engages in a joint 13 on the rear of the movable press plate 5 .
- a tension spring 14 attached to the pressing cheeks 1 engages from below in the region of the joint 11 connecting the shorter lever arm 9b to the push rod 12 and forms a return spring by which the actuating lever 9 is moved into its starting position shown in FIG. 1.
- the actuating lever 9 can be designed as a one-piece straight lever. Instead, it is also possible to design the actuating lever 9 in two parts in such a way that two parallel legs are connected by the transverse handle 10 to form a U-shaped bracket.
- the actuating lever 9 is pressed downward in the direction of arrow 15 from the initial position shown in FIG. 1.
- This pivoting movement of the longer arm 9a of the actuating lever which is directed away from the movable press plate 5, causes the movable press plate 5 to pivot towards the fixed press plate 2, with a pressing effect being exerted on the cleaning mop.
- the thrust link 12 forms with the shorter lever arm 9b of the actuating lever 9 an approximately extended toggle joint. The pressing force exerted on the cleaning mop therefore increases progressively during the pressing process.
- the actuating lever 9 In the press end position, the actuating lever 9 assumes an approximately horizontal position and lies, for example, on the upper edge of the water container 3, as shown in FIG. 2. If the handle 10 of the actuating lever is released, the return spring 14 moves the mop press again in the initial position shown in FIG. 1.
- the exemplary embodiment shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 differs from the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 1 and 2 only in the way in which the actuating force is exerted on the longer lever arm 9a of the actuating lever 9.
- the operating lever 9 is connected at the free end of its longer lever arm 9a via a joint 16 to a foot bracket 17 which can be actuated by the foot via a vertical rod 18.
- the kick bar 17 is arranged in a lateral recess 19 of the water container 3 'receiving the mop press so that it can move in height.
